The once-ubiquitous Renault 4 has rightfully earned its place in history as one of the great ‘people’s cars’, alongside other successful small automobiles. Its design is instantly recognisable, with its hatchback rear door, distinctive front end and absolute simplicity.
This particular car was purchased by the vendor in 2020 with the intention to use it for an African road trip, which never happened. So the car had been prepared for this big trip but never saw much use.
Now presented in good useable condition, this would make a great little daily runaround, or you might be considering your own epic road trip.
This looks like a great example of a Renault 4L, which has remained very original. We can see why the vendor originally intended to drive it to Africa: it’s so simple to repair and you’d never have any trouble finding parts.
Presented in good overall condition, this is the kind of car you could use as a daily driver about town, or set off over the horizon.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
C&C prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3-minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours. You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you’re able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
